Overview

  • Our programmes cover a wide range of topics, both applied and theoretical, directly developed from research taking place at Exeter
  • Our MPhys degrees give you a great opportunity to specialise in a research theme in which we excel, from astrophysics and quantum physics, through to electromagnetic and acoustic materials and biomedical physics
  • Learn within a supportive community characterised by genuine student-staff relationships and small tutorial groups, typically made up of five students
  • Option to combine your degree with a salaried research placement at companies such as Renishaw, the Home Office, and the Rutherford Appleton Laboratories
  • Opportunity to join a close-knit student society with great social events throughout the year
  • Benefit from access to advanced research facilities including clean-rooms, a helium liquefier, a water tank, amplified ultra-fast laser systems, and a suite of instruments for imaging biological materials

Assessment

Assessment in the first two years is a combination of continuous assessment and exams. About 65 per cent of the assessment in each of these years is by written examinations and short mid-term tests; the rest involves work for projects, laboratories, problems classes, and more. You must obtain a pass mark for your first year in order to proceed but your performance at this stage does not count towards your final degree classification.
